In recent days, LSU was giving a young tiger name Harvey a trial run and testing him to see if he had what it took to be the school’s new mascot.

LSU started its fall semester on Monday, and Mike VII started his new job right along with them. Here’s hoping the new mascot has a long and happy life in Baton Rouge.
